    I have no idea what kind of guitar i have here.
    ive owned this for about a year and a half so far.
    Im posting it here cause it looks to be a Charvel to me. It has a Strat Style body, h-s-s pickup configuration, rosewood board, bolt on neck, 2 volume and 1 tone, and a kahler.
    this guitar has no serial numbers anywere. ive taken it apart in search to find the serial number and have had no luck. Ive showed other people to see if they would know and also didnt have any luck. the more and more i look at it it makes me think its either a Charvel or a Kramer.
    i figured theres noone better to ask then you guys here on the board.

    Here are some pics ive had on the computer for right now. There will be more to come, but i thought this would help for right now.





    Ignore the Jolly Rancher stick on the back





    Like i said, there will be more to come. Ill post up more pics as soon as i get the chance. sorry for the crappy pictures for now.

      Interesting- I guess the locking nut was aftermarket? Because it appears from that picture, just like me, this guitar has two nuts.

        The headstock shape is definitely Charvel/Jackson shape, but why no logo? Is it painted over?

          I'm thinking Arbor or JB Player. They made knockoffs with the correct headstock shape. The routes for the singles are wrong for an import Charvel, as is the control route. The nut also doesn't look right. Too narrow. When you post more pics, make sure they're straight-on, and I'd be interested to see the 12th fret dot spacing.

            Aria made the ProII SL Series with a Jackson style neck. There were several iterations with different trems, boards, etc.

            Check out this pic, you'll see the headstock shape, also look closely at the pickups, especially the bridge, and note they are identical to the pickups in caraluzzo's guitar:

              Could that be a Chandler neck?
              Just one more guitar!

                The Aria has a slightly more curved headstock. It's tough to see on that pic.

                  I don't think Aria's ever came with a fulcrum trem either. Night Warriors came with a Kahler Flyer, then they came with the Act III (Aria's Floyd copy).

                    Look at the bottom of the fingerboard its curved not straight like a Charvel and no fretboard overhang.My guess is Aria,Dixon,Arbor.
                    Really? well screw Mark Twain.
